This was a great...

5.00This was a great experience. I expected a short tour but it was a full day with many options, getting to that experience was really fantastic. The country side is beautiful and feeling hummingbirds in my hand was really cool . My guide, Jossua, was great. This was my second excursion with him. His knowledge and flexibility throughout the trip has been great. I liked everything about this experience.
A magnificent, comprehensive tour!

5.00I rarely write reviews, but I make an exception for this one. Such an educational, endearing, eco-touristic day I spent with Jossua! He picked me up at my hotel at a time of my choosing. His focus was consistently on my needs and preferences. We headed for the Middle of the world where Jossua provided erudite info, challenged me to some entertaining, equator-exclusive experiences, guided me through the Intiñan Museum and proved himself to know the ‘hidden’ spots where to take perfect pics away from the other tourists. In conjunction, we visited an exhibit where Jossua guided me through the whole chocolate producing process – followed by the sampling of some exquisite chocolate. Onwards we travelled to Pululahua Geobotanical Reserve, a spectacular volcanic crater in the Andes that sports a stunning, fertile climate which has attracted human settlements centuries back. As usual, Jossua knew the perfect spots to take pictures and imparted his encyclopedic knowledge of the area’s history and scientific conditions. After a satisfying lunch – which is not included in the price (but was very inexpensive) – we headed for the rain forest. More precisely, for the Alambi Reserve which is a project for the conservation of the cloud forest in the Tandayapa Valley. Here in ‘paradise’ I enjoyed an other-worldly experience with a diverse collection of hummingbirds sitting on, hovering above and fanning my palms. After this mind-blowing event, Jossua walked me to a nearby coffee plantation where I was guided through the whole fascinating process of producing coffee – from sapling to refined end product. The visit ended with the sampling of some of the plantation’s succulent coffee. So in one day I got to visit the equator, the Andean highlands, the rainforest, have hummingbirds float on my hands, some stunning pictures taken, learn about and taste locally produced chocolate and coffee – guided through it all with Jossua’s friendly, erudite, safe hands.
Very good experience very good experience. I recommend to my friend and family

5.00I had the chance to have this experience with Jossua he was not only extremely knowledgeable about Ecuador like history and culture but also he was great photographer! He knew all the perfect angles and spots to capture unforgettable moments throughout the day, making sure I got beautiful photos at every key location. His attention to detail and patience while taking pictures really added to the experience. He was flexible and tailored the tour based on my preferences, making sure I saw everything on our list without feeling rushed. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable guide who goes the extra mile, I highly recommend this tour. An unforgettable experience!

5.00This was the first tour I took upon arriving in Ecuador, and it exceeded my expectations. With limited time, I truly appreciated the seamless experience—being picked up directly from the airport and heading straight into nature and the iconic Equator line. The professionalism, respect, and enthusiasm of our guide made this tour exceptional. It was more than just a trip; it was an unforgettable experience. Thank you for your kindness, outstanding service, and passion for what you do. We truly enjoyed it and hope to return soon.
